Events / [10/26/2026] Spirit of Detroit
« Last post by Jonathan Baggett on June 26, 2026, 09:16:52 AM »
The old Spirit Airlines hangar has officially found a new tenant... Spirit Halloween. Unfortunately, during setup, someone once again managed to trigger the hangar's foam fire suppression system. The decorations are soaked, the skeletons are floating, and the cleanup crew is still trying to explain why there are footprints through six feet of foam.
Join Cleveland ARTCC for Spirit of Detroit, a Halloween-themed evening at Detroit Metro. Fly your favorite Spirit routes, or any aircraft of your choosing, while enjoying full ATC coverage across the Detroit metro area. Whether you're arriving with another shipment of animatronic monsters or departing before the cleanup bill arrives, expect plenty of seasonal fun.
